Gene from the 13th Department of Bright City

"I have already answered this question."

Tommy looked at the several psychiatrists in front of him. He had been detained for a week, and now Tommy, as the number one suspect, was under intensive care.

"So that means, after you went out to buy a pack of cigarettes, it took you 20 minutes to return to your place of residence?"

"I don't remember clearly, but I'm sure I got home before 1 a.m."

Tommy replied that the purpose of such questioning was to allow him to keep returning to repeated questions to determine whether Tommy was lying or whether there might be clues in some details.

Tommy knew very well that behind the glass, the PLCs were discussing something.

"Please think carefully about Mr. Tommy."

Tommy just met with the lawyer this morning. Now the frequency of questioning and answering is becoming more and more frequent. The same questions are asked dozens of times a day. Tommy has been answering questions from morning to night. He has been put on a straitjacket. .

Of course, Tommy knew that if he answered wrongly, he would be questioned continuously, and in the end he might answer uncontrollably. In this case, they would succeed. After all, they could not find effective evidence to prove that Tommy was the criminal.

What is certain is that this matter has been closely watched by the superiors, who are required to solve the case quickly. This matter will definitely cause shock in the country.

Now this country is still controlled by conservative people. Those adventurous factions have always wanted to put the agenda to go to the surface, but conservatives think that living underground is the best, and they are unwilling to leave underground facilities and go to the surface to develop.

And this matter may have been taken advantage of by the adventurous faction. The reason for the hype was because the narrow underground world caused psychological problems in people, which ultimately led to such a tragedy.

The lawyer told Tommy a lot of things early this morning. Now there are two choices before Tommy. Either plead guilty and admit that he has a mental problem. In this way, Tommy will not be sent to the prison for serious criminals below, but will be sent to Serve your sentence in a sanatorium.

And if he doesn't plead guilty, Tommy will need to be detained continuously, most likely indefinitely, because they have found some evidence that points to Tommy.

The lawyer has already begun negotiations with the prosecutor, but it is unknown what the other party has learned, and it is still in the investigation stage.

Tommy knew that the evidence was definitely not good for him, so it would definitely affect the verdict. This evidence was even the reason why they were able to detain him for a long time.

Of course, Tommy couldn't admit it. He had to go out and find the truth. If he was really thrown to the bottom or died, Tommy couldn't imagine what would happen.

Suddenly Tommy woke up with a start. He suddenly felt an electric current rushing straight to his forehead. Tommy thought about death. What would happen if he died in this chaotic time and space.

Although there are risks, it is still worth trying. After all, instead of blindly searching for the truth, if you can return to the initial node of this time and space after death, you may be able to discover something.

"Okay, I admit my crime, you are satisfied."

As soon as Tommy finished speaking, several doctors were stunned. Tommy stood up and walked over step by step with a terrifying expression. At this moment, there was a clicking sound and several PLCs rushed in.

Tommy struggled and was led out, Tommy's lawyer at the door.

"My client may be anxious due to his long-term detention, so what he just said cannot be counted as testimony."

"I did it. I wanted to kill all of them. After thinking about it for a long time, I finally figured out a way. So I hid the hot cutting knife in advance and found the right time. And why did I take the initiative? Because I I knew the elevator would definitely fall, hahaha."

Tommy's words shocked everyone around him. Then Tommy was taken to a room. Several PLCs came over to prepare to record a statement for Tommy. Many people seemed very happy, because if this matter was solved, Many of them will receive special salaries or even promotions.

Tommy began to talk about the details of his crime, and the PLCs were all recording it. However, at this time, the expression of one PLC suddenly changed.

"What are you talking about? How could you come and go in just 10 minutes?"

After a PLC finished speaking, Tommy suddenly understood. Sure enough, they didn't have any evidence in their hands. That's why the PLC was so surprised. A PLC noticed Tommy's expression and hurriedly reminded the colleagues next to him.

If the criminal facts that Tommy admits are not consistent with the evidence, they have no choice. Once they go to court, Tommy will most likely be acquitted.

"Mr. Tommy, please tell me more carefully. How did you hide the tools near the elevator and then run to the elevator on the way to buy cigarettes?"

Tommy hummed and said.

"I went out and ran away, and then I came back after committing the crime."

Such details are too careless and cannot be used as testimony, because it takes at least 10 minutes to reach the elevator here, because the PLC has already tried it, and there is no transportation in this kind of base.

Therefore, it is impossible to commit crimes back and forth within 10 minutes by relying on legs, because Tommy appeared in the same surveillance screen, and the interval was only 10 minutes. Now they suspect Tommy because Tommy does not remember that his mother is dead. Lose.

"After I went over, I got the crime tools from the vent next to the elevator, and then successfully entered the elevator through the vent and the magnetic equipment, cut three steel cables and left."

At this time, several PLCs were taken out. Soon the PLCs and the special investigators felt strange. Tommy's 180-degree change in attitude must be to get rid of guilt, because his testimony and the evidence could not match.

Just when everyone was confused, a scream was heard, and someone hurriedly opened the door. Seeing that Tommy's PLC was bitten by Tommy, everyone began to pull, but Tommy did not let go at all.

The moment everyone pulled Tommy away, Tommy suddenly rushed out. Everyone took out their weapons to calm Tommy down. Some people thought they were going to be hurt by Tommy and shot directly.

boom.

Tommy directly smashed through the glass and rushed out. He gritted his teeth and closed his eyes. With a loud bang, Tommy fell from the sixth floor. With the scattered glass, Tommy's consciousness began to gradually blur. stand up.

Gradually, Tommy saw pink particles, and he lost consciousness. Tommy woke up from a trance.

"Tommy, come and pay homage to your father."

His mother's voice came to his ears, and Tommy stood up immediately. The room was empty and there was nothing. Tommy was naked and felt a lot of pain. When he looked at his abdomen, there was a scar. Tommy didn't know what to do. Take measures.

"what on earth is it?"

Tommy got up from the thin bed. There were some medical supplies in the room, but most of them were garbage. Tommy felt a lot of pain. At this time, the door of the room opened, and Tommy just looked over.

"Are you okay, honey."

Tommy looked at the woman who walked in. She had a determined look on her face, was wearing a military uniform, and was holding an assault rifle in her hand. It was Emily, but she was a little older.

"what happened?"

"Tommy, have you lost your memory? Don't remember us?"

Giles is right behind Emily, he is also dressed in the same way.

"While we were fighting the congressional troops, you were blown away by an explosive. Fortunately, only the fragments were embedded in your abdomen, but it was still very dangerous. You were unconscious for several days."

Tommy wanted to get up, but Emily came over to help Tommy. Only then did Tommy see several medical equipment behind him. He came to the street tremblingly. The outside was a mess, with bullet holes everywhere, and There were many people in military uniforms talking and laughing on the roadside.

"What happened? Emily."

Tommy has no memory of this at all, Emily said with a smile.

"Have you forgotten Tommy?"

Tommy also said that although he still remembered Emily and Giles, as well as a few familiar faces, the bar owner Lori was also there.

"I'll take you to the next room first."

Emily took Tommy to a smaller room next to her. Tommy looked at all the damage in the room. Emily kissed Tommy comfortingly and said.

"Tell me first what you remember?"

Tommy nodded and said.

"In my memory, I was arrested by the PLC, and they wanted to pin the crime on me. Then I got angry and jumped off the building."

Emily looked at Tommy in shock, and she gently stroked Tommy's head.

"That was six years ago Tommy."

Tommy was in shock, more than he could imagine.

"Then what happened next, can you tell me Emily."

Emily looked pained, but still put down the gun and hugged Tommy and said.

"You were lucky enough to survive, but your life was in danger. I wanted to see you, but they didn't allow it. Finally, Giles and I investigated the truth together."

Tommy nodded and Emily said with sad eyes.

"We have been looking for this truth for two years before we finally found it."

Then Emily told the story.

It was Tommy's boss who actually cut the elevator cable. Many workers knew that he relied on his position to make money, and of course the workers would threaten this boss.

In the end, everyone except Tommy and Giles knew that the reason why these workers did not speak for Tommy was because their bosses gave them benefits.

Two years after Tommy fainted, the moment the truth came out, the adventurists who took advantage of the incident immediately criticized the conservatives for covering up the truth.

People on both sides finally fought, and many people couldn't bear it anymore. At this time, someone stood up, and Emily took up arms. War broke out all over the country, and many people no longer wanted to be controlled by these upper-class people. and oppression.

"What about me?"

Emily said.

"Honey, luckily you made it through."

Tommy asked, confused.

"Why did you call me honey? We shouldn't be married yet."

Emily said, shocked.

"Did you really hurt your head? We got married nine years ago, honey."

Emily said as Tommy swallowed in disbelief.

"When you wake up, you immediately join us in action. We continue to win. We have now controlled 16 underground areas. Our resistance forces have formed a line. Although Congress has repeatedly called for us to stop such behavior , but we won’t listen to them anymore.”

Tommy felt stunned, because what happened in time and space had errors again, and it was completely different from the future in Tommy's memory.

Tommy would indeed marry Emily, not nine years ago, but six years ago, and they lived happily for more than ten years before Tommy had a child, and Tommy died in an accident.

Because Tommy has extended his life into the next era, Tommy must die.

"My dear, you have just recovered, so you should have a good rest."

Tommy nodded, he lowered his head and said nothing. Emily kicked some things away casually, making a place for Tommy. Tommy lay down tiredly, and then Emily called the doctor.

"It's okay, Emily, your husband is recovering."

Tommy watched and listened to the discussion between the two in disbelief. After all, it was unimaginable for Tommy to have a war in such an underground facility. There were already more than 40 rebels of various sizes.

The congressional forces have been retreating steadily, and their goal is to get those people in the Congress to get out, and then they can reorganize a new Congress.

Tommy said as he stood up after resting for a while.

"I want to go outside for a walk."

Emily supported Tommy and started to go downstairs. The whole city was in ruins. Tommy was still a little unbelievable. Emily told Tommy about the current situation. After the last battle, what happened to Congress? An invitation to truce was issued, hoping that their leader would come over and talk.

Emily said.

"Obviously they want to gather us together and eliminate us. Ten out of ten words spoken by those people are false. They don't want peace at all. They just want to eliminate us and then continue to consolidate everything for themselves, especially It’s those families.”

At this point Tommy thought of a question, what would happen if he died again.

Emily continued walking down the street with Tommy, and Tommy found that many soldiers were saluting them along the way.

"what happened?"

"Have you forgotten, my dear, you are our commander-in-chief. If it weren't for you, we would never have an army of more than 100,000 people."

Tommy looked at Emily in shock. He really had no memory of this episode at all.

At this time, an aircraft flew over slowly, and then began to land. Some people in military uniforms came out, and the leading man ran over happily.

"That's the leader of underground base No. 49."

"Congratulations Tommy, you survived successfully. I brought you some food."

The bearded man in front of him looked very happy, Tommy smiled and shook hands with him, and the soldiers around him also came to help.

"You take care of everything very well, and everyone trusts you very much because you can always lead us to victory."
